T-mobile Sparq prepaid phone for $4.99 @ Safeway B&M

Just curious...do you pay tax on price before coupon like manufacturer's coupons?

Quote from jinuary : Safeway has t-mobile sparq prepaid phone for $29.99 and you can also use just for u coupon to reduce the bill by $25, resulting in the price to $4.99. It seems that the inventory is limited so YMMV. I've checked my local stores but they didn't have it in stock. The $29.99 price is until 3/31 and the just for U coupon is by 4/2.

Dang. Not sure how you stumbled upon both the instant $20 discount AND $25 J4U discount, but I just picked up two. Last ones in stock. Price was $49.99 - $20 sale discount - $25 J4U coupon = $4.99 + tax. The cashier said "Whoa! I feel like I'm doing something wrong!" then laughed as he rang me up.

Just FYI, this phone is VERY basic. No 3G, mediocre camera, below average keyboard etc. BUT, at $5, it's the perfect backup phone or a cheap phone for the kids. I guess what I'm saying is don't go out of your way to find this phone.

Thanks OP!

Which section in the store? Thanks.

It's in a small display with the rest of the prepaid phone cards and gift cards. You'll have to go to customer service though to get the phone itself. I updated the wiki with that and a pic of the phone for reference.

Thanks OP! Worked like a charm. The Just 4 U coupon online was specifically for the Sparq and it stated $25 off (one time use only). My price with tax was $5.23. SUCH A GOOD DEAL! And who'd have thought there'd be such a good coupon for a phone at Safeway! Thank you thank you again!

Thanks man! You're awesome!

Where is u coupon?

I've also edited the wiki to direct you to the coupon, and attached a picture to show you what it looks like.

Thank you OP, this will be great for DD12 going to Spring Field this weekend for Class Trip. I just hope I can find it at my Dominicks.

I'm a new to this. After adding this offer to your account, you just need to give them phone number or the card and it will take off at register, no coupon needed?

Tried 2 stores and they could scanned the barcode for the price and wipe my safeway club card and $25 off only. Not $4.99 plus tax.

reg 49.99, sale price with card $29.99, $25 off with JFU= 4.99
